CS2 Power Rankings Week 24 2026: Legacy and Magic Surge
Top Tier Locked, Legacy Breaks Through
The top six remains frozen. Vitality at 1000 points, Natus Vincere at 711, Spirit at 517, Falcons at 509, FURIA at 396, Aurora at 353. No movement, no drama. The real story sits one rung lower.
Legacy vaults two spots to seventh with 311 points, overtaking both MOUZ and The MongolZ in a single week. The Brazilian squad under arT has been grinding results while the two teams above them stumbled. Legacy now sits firmly in the conversation for any event seeding discussion, and bettors should adjust accordingly. This roster has been underpriced for weeks.
MOUZ drops to eighth at 302 points despite running a four-man lineup. The absence of a fifth on this data snapshot raises questions about their immediate trajectory. The MongolZ fall to ninth at 288 points, continuing a slide that began in late May. Both teams were attractive mid-tier value plays a month ago. That window is closing.
European Mid-Tier Churn
GamerLegion climbs one spot to tenth with 265 points, leapfrogging PARIVISION who drops to eleventh. The Snax-led project is stabilizing after a shaky spring. REZ and the new additions are finding rhythm. PARIVISION at 249 points now looks vulnerable to anyone below with momentum.
FUT rises one spot to thirteenth, tied with G2 at 205 points. G2 drops one. FaZe climbs one to fifteenth at 171 points despite fielding only four players. Astralis holds twelfth at 226 points with no change.
The 10-15 range is a coin flip on most given days. Handicapping matches between these teams requires recent form over ranking points. The gap from tenth to fifteenth is just 94 points, and two of those rosters are incomplete. Betting markets will overreact to small swings here.
Magic Surges, NiP Rebounds
Magic jumps five spots to seventeenth with 132 points, the most significant move inside the top twenty. The Russian-majority lineup has been quietly stacking server wins. They now sit ahead of paiN, MIBR and 9z in the pecking order. Any upcoming qualifier appearances should be watched closely. This team is trending.
Ninjas in Pyjamas rockets twelve spots to twenty-third with 90 points. Snappi, stavn and sjuush anchor a rebuilt roster that finally looks functional. The addition of xKacpersky and cairne has unlocked something. NiP was a fade candidate two months ago. Now they are a live underdog in tier-two events.
BetBoom tumbles four spots to twenty-first at 110 points. 3DMAX drops three to twenty-second at 101 points. M80 falls four to twenty-eighth at 57 points. All three teams were sitting in profitable spots for value bets. That edge is gone until they prove the slide is over.
Polish and Swedish Academy Teams Spike
Outside the top thirty, DragonClaw climbs 47 spots to seventy-second with 14 points. The Polish mix has been farming lower-tier events. Rune Eaters jumps 55 spots to eighty-ninth, Young Ninjas rises 36 to ninety-eighth. These are not betting targets yet, but they signal which regional scenes are producing depth.
On the other end, FlyQuest drops 25 spots to eighty-first with 12 points. The Australian roster is treading water. 1win falls 33 to eighty-second, also at 12 points. Both were fringe value plays in regional qualifiers. That value is evaporating.
The bottom half of the rankings is pure volatility. Teams jump and fall 30-plus spots on a single result. Anyone betting tier-three matches should track these swings weekly, not monthly. A team at 80th this week was 55th last week. Odds won't adjust fast enough if you know the movement first.
What This Means for Bettors
Legacy at seventh is no longer a sleeper. Markets will price them as a top-eight team going forward. The value was last month. MOUZ and The MongolZ, conversely, are now possible fades depending on opposition. Both teams are drifting and their ranking points overstate their current form.
Magic and NiP are the two names to watch in the 15-25 range. Both are moving quickly and will be undervalued in their next tournaments. G2 and BetBoom, once reliable, now look shaky. Bet accordingly until they stabilize.
The top six remains untouchable. Betting any of those teams as underdogs against anyone outside that group is still sharp. The gap from FURIA at fifth to Aurora at sixth is 43 points. The gap from Aurora at sixth to Legacy at seventh is 42 points. That second gap matters more right now.
